Chapter 288

“Ms. Sorelle, is this what you meant when you said you wanted to work on improving the design of your brand?” Joel exclaimed with a chuckle when he saw that.

Angeline was starting to panic a little after being humiliated twice in a row.

“I'm terribly sorry, Joel! I should've managed my subordinates better!”

I'll have to make things right if I am to have Joel work for my company!

With that in mind, she glared at the employees in the design department and asked sternly, “What do you guys think you're doing?”

The employees all looked a lot more energetic when they saw Angeline.

“Good morning, Ms. Sorelle!” they greeted her in unison.

“What exactly is going on here? I am paying you guys to help generate revenue, not to slack off and create a mess!” Angeline continued with a frown.

The employees were all so scared that none of them dared make a sound.

“Why are you in such a bad mood so early in the morning, Ms. Sorelle? Does taking your anger out on my department make you feel better about yourself?” Steven asked with a disdainful frown as he lifted his legs off the couch.

“Your department?”

Angeline shot Steven an icy-cold glare as she reminded him, “I think you should go through the company's employee handbook again. You and this entire department are beneath me!”

She deliberately emphasized the last two words in order- to crash Steven's ego.

Livid with rage, Steven snapped back at her in a threatening tone, “You... Don't get cocky just yet! You only have three more days before the launch of the matching family outfit!”

He liked using Angeline's work to put pressure on her as she would always concede unconditionally.
